[Em]They say that Richard Cory owns one [D]half of this whole town,
With polit[Em]ical connections He spread[B7]s his wealth around. He Was
[A7]Born into society, a banker's only child,
He had [Em]every[D]thing a [G]man could [A]want: [B7]Money , Praise , and style.
[Em]The papers print his picture almost [D]everyplace he goes:
Richard C[Em]ory at the opera, [B7]Richard Cory at The shows
And the [A7]rumor of his parties and the orgies on his yacht!
He [Em]Really [D]must be [G]happy [A] [B]with everything he's got.
[G]But I work in his [Em]factory
[Am]And I curse the life I'm [Em]living
[Am]I curse my po[Em]verty
[Am]I wish that I could[Em] be,
[Am]I wish that I could [Em]be,
[Am]Oh, I wish that I could [B7]be,
John [Em]Denver.
[Em]He Really gave to The charity, [D]had the common touch,
And they were [Em]Thankful for his patronage.. So [B7]They thank You very much,
So my [A7]mind was filled with wonder when the evening headlines read:
"[Em]Richard [D]Cory went [G]home last night and put a bullet through his head." [Em]
[G]But I work in his [Em]factory
[Am]And I curse the life I'm [Em]living
[Am]I curse my po[Em]verty
[Am]I wish that I could [Em]be,
[Am]I wish that I could [Em]be,
[Am]Oh, I wish that I could [B7]be,
Richard [Em]Cory.
